Here we are again, with our semi-annual check in on our favorite American manager Jake Rubin, and his Birmingham City side who are ****-bent on Worldwide reputation and setting the English Football pyramid aflame. Not only have they managed to scalp promotion from the morass which we call the...
Last we had checked, Jake Rubin was defying all odds (a heap of debt and a miniscule wage and transfer budget) in steering Brum City to a 4th place spot at Boxing Day. Plaudits questioned his decision to take charge of such a project; but as always Rubin has an eye for the future. In Birmingham...
I have no idea what happened lol but the game didn't list that properly. With Doncaster I finished 9th in League 1 my first season, then won it my second season. Finished 11th in the championship, and then won it my second season.
I will definitely be following this story up but it's more of a...

I am going to table the save right now.
Moving to Birmingham currently in the Blue Square Premier. For two reasons --> 1. Mass population and possibility for fans. 2. Challenge.
I will keep everyone updated.

Bank Balance is over 60M - it goes up after the season, then the board take their dividends payout. Then finances go back towards 0 during the season. Sponsorship and competition payouts are keeping me afloat. But with a 20,000 seat stadium I'm never going to advance financially...
Is everyone's board completely daft when it comes to the fanbase?
-The club has sold 13600 season tickets we expect that number to increase by 100 to 13700
One week later
-The club has sold 15800 season tickets we expect that number to increase by 100 to 15900
One week later
-The club has sold...
Currently in 2028 with Doncaster. Started off with them in 2013 (after I had started without a job --> tried to make it as realistic as I could, meaning I said I had no professional football experience). In hindsight I should have started with a BSN team or something... Haha
I find it funny...
HOW AM I SAYING REPLACE EVERYONE??? That's your team you dimwit. The way you make it sound, you don't need any advice.
Why are you asking for it in the first place if you aren't going to heed any of it. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.
Ungrateful little s--t.
Guys,
This is really sad but I don't think it's possible to get a new stadium with Doncaster.
I've tried really hard. My squad is unbeatable, but the board insist that there "isn't any evidence of the fanbase increasing in the near future".
Stadium attendance has been at 99-100% capacity...

That's my tactic I have been crushing the BPL - give it some time. Let the players get used to it...
Awesome congrats. I have manager of Doncaster for 15 years. The board refuse to build a new stadium and we are on the edge of debt. They say the fanbase shows no signs of increasing in the near future. Anyways. I'm jealous. Congrats!
Click on a player, then click on history, and select injuries.
Will give you a list of all of their injuries. A player's "proneness to injury" is a hidden attribute, but it is there.
If they are prone to injury - they will continue to get injured. You may want to consider selling them...
